Spinach with a bit of pepper and some lemon juice on it.

Parsnips for me, I regularly eat loads before I dish up what's left. Cabbage would be next now I cook it myself and it's not overcooked.

misssingerbrains You are so right celery should be banned. Every other vegetable is pretty tasty. Other than celeriac which tastes like celery.

Firsttimenest · 04/03/2019 13:00

Cucumber. Nice and refreshing.

HariboLecter · 04/03/2019 13:01

Parsnips or mushrooms

Chocolatecoffeeaddict · 04/03/2019 13:02

GreatDuckCookery6211 · 04/03/2019 13:04

Broccoli here too. Have it most days with a sprinkling of Parmesan.

Savoy cabbage...with loads of gravy

magimedi · 04/03/2019 13:13

Onions.

How many recipes start with 'chop an onion'?

usernamerisnotavailable · 04/03/2019 13:14

Petit Pois - my absolute favourite. Especially raw from the pod. Yum. But then I love absolutetly all vegetables especially Fennel, Cavalo Nero, tenderstem brocolli, corn on the cob, I could go on.

Swedetalker · 04/03/2019 13:17

Spring onions. I will find a way to shoehorn them into any meal.

SerenDippitty · 04/03/2019 13:17

Leeks

riotlady · 04/03/2019 13:17

I was going to say asparagus but @magimedi has a good point about onions...

onemorecupofcoffeefortheroad · 04/03/2019 13:18

Potatoes
Onions
Brussel sprouts
Which of course adds up to bubble and squeak my favourite dish.

Boredisboring · 04/03/2019 13:18

Agree with itsallokusually, okra is the devil's veg.
Potato is the workhorse, but how about leeks, my current favourite?

userschmoozer · 04/03/2019 13:20

Spring greens!

MuddyMoose · 04/03/2019 13:20

Parsnips 😍

I'm not a vegetarian either but also love vegetables. I'll give you my top 3 list, because only naming 1 isn't fair.

1 Asparagus. I live in spitting distance of the Vale of Evesham & our Asparagus is amazing.

2 Home grown Runner beans

3 Curly Kale
